Ontology Weekly Report (April 15–21)
Over the past week, Ontology has been closely communicating with partners and community members across the world. In this weekly report, you will find the results of our online campaign for the Ontology Russian community, the growth of the Ontology Pakistan community, news of our partnership with the Chamber of Digital Commerce, and updates on Ontology’s nodes. We would also especially like to introduce the newly launched ONT-33D token. ONT-33D is a BEP-2 token launched on Binance Chain backed by ONT at a 1:1 ratio. It is currently listed on Binance DEX.
